Fish is Fish by Leo Lionni

I finally finished a cute companion pack for one of my favorite books by an amazing author!

Fish is Fish by Leo Lionni is great for working on vocabulary, compare/ contrast, cause/effect and many other goals!
You can find this packet HERE on teachers pay teachers.  The activities are geared toward grades K-2 but many can be differentiated to fit various student levels.




Contents and Directions:
Print and Laminate all pages for durability.
Pages 3-5: Compare and contrast characters: Frog & Fish
use page 4 as a branching strategy to have students match descriptions to the character(s) they belong with on page 3
Pages 6-8: Frog Lifecycle model and student page.

Pages 9-11: Sequence the story with the choice of 2 sequencing mats.
Pages 12-15: Target Vocabulary found in the story and pertaining to the characters
Includes fill- in the blank worksheets for homework/ extra practice.
Page 16-17: Concrete and higher-order language open-ended “WH” questions 
Pages 18-20: Cause and Effect
Includes a matching cause and effect page and a writing page.
Pages 21-: Following directions with prepositions
Print one “pond” page and one “pond life” page per student.
Give students directions to place each piece on the pond page according to prepositions (above, below, next to)
You can also use these pages for multi-step directions (ie. put one duck and two bees above the pond).
Enjoy and please leave feedback!
